To free-range or not to free-range? Plus my thoughts on free-ranging.
Free-ranging chickens is a subject with several different opinions. Many people say free-ranging is better for your birds health, which can be true. It can also be dangerous, especially if you have dogs wandering the neighborhood. Hawks and other birds of prey can also be hazards when free-ranging your flock.
Free-ranging your chickens can be good for your flocks health, but it can also be risky because of predators. You might also have neighbors who don’t enjoy your chickens on their land.
